    A message about two types of hope; one from Jesus and the other from Satan. And a cautionary reminder that, since we all seek hope, we must be very careful on which one we choose.

    Ponder the various responses of the people who came to know of the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus.

    Can this be real? That Jesus died and then came back to life? • What does it mean to us if He is dead? Does it really matter? The truth is, it matters. If Jesus claims to be God and comes from heaven, and He remains dead, then there is no hope for anyone. • Death ends everything. Death will be ...read more

Yet the Bible says a wind (the breath of God) swept over the surface of the "water" (Genesis 1:2) so there something there ... maybe everything there … the particles ... all the molecules, all of the “substance” of the ...read more
